I was gonna post my preference list of the remaining contestants yesterday before Scott was gonna be booted. Constantine was at the Bottom anyway. So the list doesn't need to be readjusted. Here it goes, in the order of who I think should be the next idol:

1- Bo Bice (He could be the lead singer of the new Blood Sweat and Tears right now)

2- Vonzelle Solomon (Best pure voice among all contestants)

3- Carrie Underwood (Pretty, perky, popular All American safe choice with a very good voice and a sure future as a Country Music star. She'll keep getting the votes and will be one of the final two)

4- Scott Savol (Surprisingly good voice. But no looks or stage presence to go with it.)

5- Anatolly 'Anthony' Federov (Good voice for some songs, but not all. I think he's come as far as he could and will be gone next week.)

Agree?

04-28-2005, 08:20 AM

AMEN BRUTHA!! Constantine was pathetic!! But frankly, Scott just flat out sucks a$$, that dude has got to go.

Bo and Carrie are by far the best. Vonzell can sign Whitney for sure, but what else can she do? Anthony is a decent singer, but so Manilow it makes me puke!

My top three would be the reverse-I think Carrie Underwood takes the trophy, Vonzelle is runnerup, and Bo, well, Bo, IMO, has this Skynardesque aura about him that may hurt his chances. JMO

I can't stand Anthony, but he's had some really good performances. He sang a Marc Anthony song early in the season and was awesome, and he did fairly well on that Celine Dion song, it was just a gay song. The problem is he's annoying as hell.

I can't believe how these bad singers like Scott and Constantine get by week after week with mediocre performances, while Nadia and Anwar stumble once and get the axe. I agree the Constantine Queen cover was really good though.

Bo does an awesome job of choosing songs. He has a unique voice, that would sound really bad with the wrong song choice, but he always gets it right. I keep waiting for the week when he chooses the wrong song.

He was good at times (like his Queen cover), and horrible at others. Obviously, he can't do Nickelback. He deserved to go.

Yes, I watch Idol.

I don't watch it regularly, but I did see when he did Bohemian Rhapsody. He was the first Idol person who did a Freddie Mercury song that sounded anywhere close to the original IMO.

I still can't stand that one dude with a second mouth in his throat. I know it's pretty remarkable that he can sing after a tracheotomy, but it still creeps me out.

Making smoochies is and so is singing to the judges and jumping on their table.

All of them play to the camera it wasn't just Constantine.

Have you ever been to a concert? Singing to the LIVE AUDIENCE is nothing like singing to the camera. And yes, they all put on a show. Not all of them do it like Constantine.

It's quite simple -- Constantine is fake. He's not a rocker and tried to pass himself off as one. He's the American Idol equivalent of Liberace.

Yeah - ChiefsPlanet also has an amazing TiVo following. Hopefully everybody got last night's episode watched. Heh. I wouldn't have cared about the spoiler though - I just fast forward to the end of the elimination shows.2 things were recording at 9 last night, so I watched something prerecorded so I could zap the commercials on the elimination show.

I have never seen a show so pimped out as that one, brazen, unabashed, drag it out crap.

I can't blame them, they are making money because fools suffer it. ;)

I have been to close to 100 concerts I went to alot when I was a teenager, I am a big 80's hard rock fan.

ALL of them play to the camera even Bo who I like alot as well. But when he climbs on the judges table and then sings TO THE JUDGES that is not singing to the crowd that is ass kissing.

I don't think Constantine is a fake since he does or did have his own band. IMO he is a very good performer and knows how to work the stage and the crowd unlike Scott.

MY bad. Sorry.

Thanks Frankie. I think that came off sharper than I intended. I guess all caps can do that. I just try hard to avoid finding out before I see the show.

Same thing with football. I tivo all of it and usually watch it on my schedule. Sometimes you just cannot avoid finding out.

I realize you want to talk about who got dropped and I have ZERO problem with that. Just hope that in the future the name is not mentioned in the thread title. :)

Constantine sucked ass. He can not perform unless it is to a bunch of adolesenses that don't know their ass from a hole in the ground.

His voice was terrible, his on stage antics were of a 16 year old trying to look cool at the school talent show hoping to get laid by a few of the cheerleaders. Plain and simple! Thank god he is gone and I can stop cringing or leaving the room every time he performs.

I don't enjoy Scott, but he does have some vocals, he just needs to stop trying to act black, it does not suit him. Oh, and stop hitting his girlfriend!!

At this point I do not know who I like. I was going for Nadia until she was voted out. Now it is probably down to Carrie and Bo.

You must have missed the week they had to sing musicals. He sucked that week and ended up in the bottom three.

Except he didn't land in the bottom three after that. He was in the bottom three after he did "Freebird" the next week. Everybody was bad on the "Classic Musicals" night.

I don't think Constantine is a fake. I think he really
loves rock and performing rock. He's just not very good at it. He was at his best when he was in "Theaterboi" mode. He probably has an idea of how a perfect rock star should act and perform and that's why he always comes off as affected and fake.

I've been to a couple hundred shows and concerts. I've also played in a band.

That fact that you're a big 80's hard rock fan might have something to do with why you like Constantine. I think it's probably the same reason 14-yea-old girls like him -- it's about the "look" more than anything else.

And playing to the judges CANNOT be ass-kissing. They DON'T VOTE.

AS for Constantine's band being the reason he's not fake, look at the reactions of his band mates when he left. He's a straight-up poser.

Maybe he isn't fake, he just comes off that way because he's trying too hard. I think he's trying to be a rock STAR instead of just concentrating on the rock part of it.

I always wanted to be in a band I am just not musically talented. Of course the only reason I wanted to be in a band is to pick up girls.

Anyway American Idol and all of the judges have said this, that it is more than a singing contest. It is about the person who has the total package which is the look, personality, and who can also carry a tune. If this was a singing contest Anwar would have won as all of the judges said he was by far the best singer in the whole contest.

You're right the judges don't vote but you are naive if you think they don't have any influence.

From what I understand Bo has a band as well called Sugar Money which he left or is on hold while he does American Idol.

You wanted to be in a band to pick up girls. From watching their performances on TV, that's why Constantine was in a band too.

And you're right, it is more than a singing contest. That's why Bo is still going and Constantine isn't. His "schtick" got old.

04-28-2005, 12:05 PM

I don't think any of the remaining contestants are very good. Vonzell (sp) is clearly the best of the group.

The long-hairs have sucked arse from the beginning. Neither can sing, and the on-stage antics of both can be seen in any dive on any weekend in any city in America.

The blonde hayseed can sing, lacks charisma completely. She needs to drop the country girl act and show some booty. The American Idol can't possibly be a country singer.

Anthony Tracheov is just gay enough to win the thing.

Fatboy is a punk.

Carrie is the best one when she is singing the right song, the last 2 weeks for her have been a mess though. Vonzell may steal this thing if she's not careful. Carrie will certainly have the most successfull career no matter how it ends.
